Neville's Court

Located on Dollis Hill Lane, approximately 200yds from the one time Post Office Research Station. In 1939 work started on an alternative cabinet war room within the grounds of the research station called Paddock. There was no accommodation on site, so it was proposed that 60 flats in Neville's court would be used for housing war cabinet senior staff and secretaries. After the start of the London Blitz on 7th September 1940, Churchill visited the site and approved plans to knock two of the flats into one to form a double flat for himself and his secretaries. One week later the Office of Works requisitioned the whole of Neville's Court for the Government.
